MIDAS - The Legend in
Sound Quality
Ever since its formation in the 1970s, MIDAS
has had a long history of innovation and
leadership in the world of audio mixing
consoles. Employed by the most famous
touring acts and installations world-wide,
legendary MIDAS consoles such as the
XL4 and Heritage H3000 quickly became
industry standards.
MIDAS has earned their impeccable reputation
due to their no-compromise approach for
audio and build quality and in particular for
their Award-winning Mic Preamps which
are considered by industry experts as the
industry’s best sounding designs. Building on
this legacy, the XL8 and PRO Series of Live Mixing Systems continue this great heritage of
Award-winning audio quality.
BEHRINGER is proud to incorporate a MIDAS designed mic preamp for the ultimate in
high-quality audio reproduction in both live and studio environments. Find out more
about MIDAS’ amazing legacy by visiting their extensive website.
Massive Connectivity
When used as part of a complete X32 system,
two S16 Stage Boxes can be cascaded via the
built-in AES50 ports, providing connectivity
for up to 32 mic/line inputs, 16 balanced
outputs and the awesome POWERPLAY P-16
Personal Monitoring System – which can feed
up to 48 individual monitor mixers. We also
included 2 optical ADAT sockets for connecting
channels 1 - 8 and 9 - 16 to outboard devices,
a convenient USB port for system updates via
your PC – and MIDI I/O for lighting systems and
sound module control.

Standalone Snake Mode
The S16 was initially designed with our agship X32 Digital Mixing Console in mind, but any mixing
board with AES50 networking capability can still tap into the S16’s powerful feature set. So even if
the gig calls for an analog board, you can quickly assemble a couple of S16s and ADA8200s to create
a high-performance, lightweight 16 x 16 digital snake – with full remote preamp control.
Remotely Controllable Preamps Make Setup a Breeze
S16’s ingenious monitoring/head amp control section allows you to select any of the 16 inputs,
8 bus outputs or P-16 output streams for immediate line checks. In addition to signal metering at the
stage box, you can also set individual input channel Gain, apply +48 V phantom power – and listen
directly to the input signal via headphones and much more. Once set, all con guration settings can
be locked at the console for total system security.
Seamless Integration with P-16 Personal Monitoring System
The ULTRANET port on the S16 lets you connect directly to our POWERPLAY P-16 system,
which provides an easy and a ordable way to give your musicians and vocalists what they really
want – “more me!” P16-M Personal Mixers let each performer take control of what they hear,
allowing you to concentrate on providing the audience with the best possible listening experience.
Fast and easy to set up, a basic system can be installed and con gured in a matter of minutes,
and the system can be expanded to adapt to changing needs.
